Pitchfork is good if youre a band pitchfork likes, but they have serious Ls and a legacy for hating things that turned out to be good and influential.

don't worry they had no problem editing that legacy to reflect that they were always ahead of the culture

music is highly subjective of course. there's lots of things that are well-liked and influential that I think suck ass too

that said I never did like reading pitchfork reviews, they were often very pretentious and annoying IMO. but it could be a good place to find out about new music coming out even if you don't read the reviews
